Today marks the start of Canadian Fertility Awareness Week.

1 in 6 Canadians experience fertility challenges, and many are looking for ways to feel more supported through the process.

Fertility acupuncture is one option. It works by supporting hormonal regulation, blood flow, and the nervous system - all factors to help your body function more optimally.

Fertility acupuncture is one of the most researched areas of acupuncture, with a growing body of evidence showing promising results. For example, a 2019 systematic review and meta-analysis found improvements in IVF outcomes, especially for those with previous unsuccessful cycles: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6570865/

Ask Dr. Antonina Bezsmertna

Can acupuncture help if I don’t have a specific issue and just want to feel better?

Yes, absolutely. In traditional Chinese medicine, there’s a strong focus on prevention and maintaining balance, not just treating illness.

Historically in China, village doctors were often paid as long as the community stayed healthy, and if someone became sick, they would stop getting paid until the person recovered. Because of this, the goal was to keep people well rather than only treat problems after they appeared.

Acupuncture can be helpful even if you don’t have a specific concern - it can reduce stress, improve sleep and energy, support the nervous system, and improve the overall quality of different aspects of your health, helping your body function more smoothly day to day.

Many people are surprised to learn that acupuncture is based on a detailed map of the body called the channel system.

These pathways help us understand how symptoms connect to deeper patterns in the body.

In clinic, we use this system to choose points that restore healthy circulation of Qi and Blood.

Have you ever wondered why a needle in the leg can help shoulder pain? Channels are the reason!
